Investigation of alternative methods including jackknifing for estimating point availability of a system
Abstract
Properties of two alternative procedures to the Jackknife
Point and Confidence Interval Estimation Procedure of
Gaver and Chu have been studied. They are called the Log-
Normal Likelihood Procedure (LNLJ) and the Moment Procedure
(MP) . These two procedures were investigated and compared
with the Jackknife Point and Confidence Interval Availability
Estimation Procedure. Numerical results from simulations
are presented in this report.
